Now I got my first bug report claiming this is not wanted and should only be done if explicitly asked for. Now it's me against the user and I can of course easily close WONTFIX, but I wonder what others thing: what is the use case of storing the live cd on a USB stick?
I'd say the main use case is to be able to easily install openSUSE on netbooks or other boxes with no built in cd/dvd drive.
Unless the writing done on the usb stick causes "unclean" installations. I don't see how it's a problem. It will be as unclean as the system changes you have in your RAM.
But if it's feasible to make the writing optional, with read-only being the default, that would probably be for the best.
Why it's feasible? You say yourself there is no problem and it only makes it harder for people to use. Allowing a livero boot paramter deeply hidden in some wiki page is another story of course, I'm talking about the default.
